My plan is to base 3.4 on buildout.

As far as buildout support for individual packages, that's up to the
package maintainers.  I do think a goal should be to be able to
run each packages tests independently (with the packages dependencies
of course).  This is a good way to make sure the dependencies are complete
and also eases development, in my experience. Buildout makes this
easier to do.
